A federal investigation into a deadly listeria outbreak last year has found significant flaws with an algorithm-based system deployed by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency that oversees how often food-production facilities are inspected.

A report by CFIA Inspector-General Scott Rattray also found the agency has failed to meet its annual inspection targets – and that a large number of facilities have not been scrutinized because of weaknesses in the system.

Judges for top courts across Canada are underpaid and should receive raises of about 7 per cent to ensure highly qualified candidates continue to apply for jobs behind the bench, according to a commission that reviews judges’ salaries.

The proposed raise would increase the salary of most federally appointed judges to $424,700 from $396,700. There are 968 full-time and 230 part-time judges sitting on federally appointed benches, which include provincial superior and appeal courts, the Federal and Tax courts, and the Supreme Court of Canada.

Scott Tingley with Nova Scotia’s Department of Natural Resources says it’s rare to be simultaneously monitoring a hurricane while fighting wildfires in the province.

For Canada Games Council CEO Kelly-Ann Paul, the timing of Air Canada’s strike was nothing short of “surreal.”

Snagging the commission to furnish the commissioner-general’s suite in Moshe Safdie’s Habitat complex at Montreal’s Expo 67 was quite a coup for 26-year-old furniture jobber Klaus Nienkamper. He had sailed to Canada from his native Germany in 1960 with only $36 in his pocket, and eked out a living soon after as “right rear vacuum man” at Farb’s Car Wash on Toronto’s King Street West.

As Mr. Nienkamper recalled in his eponymous furniture company’s Festschrift, Nienkamper: 50 Years of Excellence from Design to Delivery, published in 2018, “I did not have a factory. My only asset was a station wagon, and I had everything produced in small shops in and around Toronto.”
